RESUMO

Resumen: Las complicaciones neurológicas perioperatorias secundarias a hipoxia durante procedimientos de sedación y anestesia general son frecuentes en cirugía cardiovascular y en pacientes con comorbilidades. Sin embargo, hasta el momento no existe un consenso para el diagnóstico de estas posibles complicaciones. En pacientes con trauma encefálico severo y/o hemorragia subaracnoidea el lactato cerebral no fue útil para predicción de hipoxia cerebral; pese a ello, la relación de lactato/piruvato podría ser una herramienta para diagnóstico intraoperatorio de hipoxia cerebral aguda. Los estudios sugieren que éste debe asociarse a otros marcadores y/o a monitoreo multimodal. Es necesario realizar estudios que evalúen su valor predictivo para hipoxia cerebral.


Abstract: Perioperative neurological complications secondary to hypoxia during sedation and general anesthesia procedures are frequent in cardiovascular surgery, and in patients with comorbidities. However, so far there is no consensus for the diagnosis of these possible complications. In patients with head trauma severe and/or subarachnoid hemorrhage cerebral lactate was not useful for predicting cerebral hypoxia, however the lactate/pyruvate ratio could be a tool for intraoperative diagnosis of acute cerebral hypoxia. Studies suggest that it must be associated with other markers or multimodal monitoring. Further studies are needed to evaluate lactate predictive value for the diagnosis of cerebral hypoxia.

RESUMO

Actinomycosis is an infrequent infection caused by bacteria from Actinomyces genus that manifests as a chronic, suppurative and progressive disease. It's more common in men. Thoracic actinomycosis occurs in 15% of the cases, and infection of the chest wall is less frequent. The clinical presentation mimics tuberculosis or neoplastic processes. In this article we present the case of a 63 year-old man with no comorbidity, with pulmonary actinomycosis involving the chest wall mimicking a neoplastic process, basing the diagnosis on histopathologic findings.


La actinomicosis es una infección poco común causada por bacterias del género Actinomyces que se manifiesta como una enfermedad crónica, supurativa y progresiva. Es más frecuente en hombres. La actinomicosis torácica se presenta en 15% de los casos, siendo el compromiso de pared torácica aún menos frecuente. La presentación clínica simula procesos neoplásicos o tuberculosis. Se describe el caso de un hombre de 63 años, sin co-morbilidad, con una actinomicosis pulmonar con compromiso de pared torácica que simuló ser un proceso neoplásico. El diagnóstico fue confirmado por los hallazgos histopatológicos.

RESUMO

Charles Bonnet syndrome is an underrecognized condition characterized by complex visual hallucinations, ocular problems causing visual deterioration and preserved cognitive status. Its prevalence is 5/1000 in ambulatory ophthalmologic patients. Generally occurs in elderly people in whom it may be confused with delirium or dementia. The first management step is to improve vision, if possible. Hallucinations may be managed pharmacologically. We report a 94 year-old woman with the characteristic clinical picture of the syndrome that improved with haloperidol.
